Technical decision making/Community representation/es
The Technical Decision Forum is "a place to clarify stakeholders and problem statements" for folks working towards cross cutting changes in MediaWiki and other Wikimedia movement software projects. The Forum is both the location that proposals will be posted and a group of individuals representing the concerns of teams/projects that they represent in the subsequent discussion.
The Forum's members will include representatives from many technical teams within the Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia Deutschland. These members will be appointed by their respective employers. El Foro también incluirá las perspectivas de otros desarrolladores de Wikimedia y MediaWiki en la gran FOSS comunidad de voluntarios.
Número de puestos comunitarios en el Foro
Habrán 2 puestos comunitarios en el Foro Inicial 2022.
El número de puestos en la comunidad puede ser ajustado en cualquier momento por el GPTP (Gerente Principal de Tecnologías y Productos de la Fundación Wikimedia) o su(s) representante(s) designado(s). La destitución de puestos en la comunidad no debe entrar en efecto hasta la conclusión de la próxima nominación regularmente agendada y el proceso de elección posterior al anuncio de una reducción de puestos. La adición de puestos entra en efecto inemdiatamente y genera una ronda especial de nominación para ocupar los puestos adicionales.
